A social application of ELA that reveals the hidden structures of power, inclusion, and expression. Using the STOP and IICE frameworks, SAA maps how cultural norms, emotional expectations, and social boundaries shape who can be seen, heard, and valued, and offers tools to navigate and transform these systems.
Social Architecture Analysis (SAA):
STOP Framework
STOP identifies the socialized tools of power that subtly shape behavior, access, and perception.
IICE Framework
IICE reveals how cultural taste, emotion, and belonging are quietly policed through identity-based expectations.
